2765 * Remove some unused templates

2771 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
2772 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
2773 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

2781 (requires debconf 1.4.42 and cdebconf 0.75), but leave it disabled for
2783 * Create /etc/fstab in the target (this also seems to solve the problem
2784 with noatime disappearing, and so should reduce snapshot utilization)

2804 readable menu item text

2807 * Create temporary symlinks in pre.d for the prebaseconfig.d items we

2810 * Make some pre.d scripts idempotent, for ease of testing

2828 * Attempt to configure X
2829 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2830 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)
2831 * Conditionalize some of the configuration code, so we automatically do
2832 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
2833 * Add German translation from Andreas Mueller
2834 * modprobe ext2, to let powerpc work (this should probably happen
2835 elsewhere, but for now...)

2849 prevent d-i from installing packages which should have been present in
2850 the filesystem image anyway, but weren't)

2856 * Use mount --move to move the cdrom mount point, so that we can unmount
2857 /initrd and free up the memory used by d-i
2858 * Use /dev/ram1 rather than /dev/ram0 for the COW stuff, since /dev/ram0
2859 is used for initrds and we want to avoid confusion
2860 * Organize casper-udeb.postinst into shell functions
2861 * Add a progress bar
2862 * Add a debian/compat file (version 4)
